UNBELIEVABLE!! NOT EVEN CLOSE!!

LFG! SML is something else. Truly generational.

 

[Xennial]

it’s hard for me to see that dude only being 59.05.. cause even factoring in the pool, he should have been near his British trials time because he wouldn’t have had to fully rest and taper for those trials

So anyone in a situation like him, have to wonder because they woulda been at least around their trials times because of pool.. and if in a normal pool, woulda dropped time.. so you have to wonder about certain Australian ladies, for example

Cause the advantage certain people have over say US folks, they don’t have to rest/shave/taper twice in a relatively short period

Aussie trials aren't tough as well?

Damn I feel bad for Bol I thought this would be THE matchup of the games. Sydney on some “there’s levels to this ish”.

 

[whtascene]

Bol looked sluggish, but she has one of the best moments of the Games with the relay performance.

 

[05fordgt]

Great day for T&F!!

Tara winning the long jump!! Outstanding!!

Can't wait to see how her husband does in the Paralympics!

 

[eracism]

I swear if she starts praising her husband. Girl, YOU did that.

Serbia low key handling USA.
USA: 1-on-1-on-1-on-1-on-1
Serbia: ball movement.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[05fordgt]

Sydney is doing Usain Bolt level results. Truly one for the ages!!

 

[dragicon]

Wait I thought positive = quarantine.
Are we past that?

There was an athlete that tested positive earlier in the Olympics and they did say on that broadcast that it’s up to the athlete on whether they can compete or not. It’s no longer a quarantine type of thing this year.

I couldn't believe my eyes at the final stretch. Didn't even look like she was trying.

Yeah, I think it was a swimmer, and I just remember thinking "Damn, all this way and now he's out."
I guess that didn't happen? I don't remember the name because I just thought COVID = quarantine.

WTH was that flop by Embiid

 

[darthska]

This USA/Serbia basketball game is weird.
Serbia has maintained control the entire time, and Embiid just pump faked from a corner 3 for a 2-dribble baseline dunk.
Of course, everyone gets up and is all excited... but that brings USA to down 10.

WTH was that flop by Embiid

Bro dunked it and then spun around and fell for absolutely no reason.

 

[darthska]

Anthony Edwards selling.

WR in US trials followed by WR in the games again. Sydney too good man.

I wonder if the 4x400 Mixed cost Femke but a Gold and Bronze is better than a silver.

Michael Johnson saying Sydney will move to the 400m flat to try and get that world record when she puts the 400m hurdles WR out of reach.
Imagine having those kind of options

Bruh we can’t win Bronze, we can’t go back 20 years to the Argentina days

 

[kdawg]

You think covid is what prevented Peaty from getting that 100 breast gold for a 3rd straight Olympics?

If you think that it probably reduces your lung performance by a percent or two (at the very least) that’s absolutely enough to make a few tenths difference which is a lot more than he lost by. I’ve got no doubt that it cost him.

 

[IATT]

Aussie trials aren't tough as well?

They are but for specific stuff

Like MOC and titmus were racing each other but there were still 2 spots

Serbia low key handling USA.
USA: 1-on-1-on-1-on-1-on-1
Serbia: ball movement.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That’s exactly what the commentator I’m watching said - Serbia can rest on defense because there’s no movement.

Good team play was always going to be the Achilles heel of this team.

 

[T0INE]

Missed Sydney vs. Minnie Mouse watching Team USA getting their **** pushed in by Serbia.
